Thanks for the info. I can definitely see this new version being very useful when canning beers that have different levels of CO2. Instead of lowering the pressure on the keg when filling, I was thinking I could just use the pressure relief valve on the Tapcooler to control the flow and prevent...

How do you like the new version of the can filler? I'm thinking about getting one, but can't decide if it's worth it compared to filling cans using a beer gun and putting the lid on foam. I can see the counter pressure feature being handy when filling cans with a higher carbed beer.

I thought the exact same thing when I saw this. Brew Boss is the only system I have seen that uses this center mash recirculation pipe. I thought that Darin had a patent pending on this but I could be wrong.

So has Darin announced that he's having a Black Friday deal or is it just speculation at this point?

Lots of info here https://www.homebrewtalk.com/forum/threads/brew-boss-systems.475360/

Your description is spot on with what I have experienced. I have noticed the same astringent/soapy flavor when fermenting an ipa under 15 psi, then letting the pressure build to 25 psi near the end of fermentation.This was without any dry hopping. I've never experienced this off flavor with a...

I'm in!

The tablet and controller communicate directly with each other. The controller actually has its own dedicated WiFi that the tablet connects to. Your home network is not needed.

I bought a small 2.5 gallon Shopvac specifically for drying my CFC. It cost me $30 at Lowes. It sucks all of the water out and leaves my CFC completely dry. I use it to dry out my Chugger pump too.

If you could post the parts necessary to build this that would be great. I have the same conical and I've been looking into making something just like this.

This is the first time I have used Fawcett Pearl malt so maybe that's the culprit. Next time I brew this recipe I'll see if I can pinpoint where the rise in pH is occurring. Thanks for the info.

Here is all the data from Bru'n Water that I used for this brew session. I didn't see any mistakes but maybe I'm missing something. My pH meter was calibrated before use so I don't think that's the problem.

For some reason with my last brew my mash pH came in high at 5.7. I used Bru'n Water to calculate my salt additions to get my pH to 5.4 beforehand. I dilute with 80% distilled water and use tap water for the rest. I have used Bru'n Water before to accurately predict my mash pH. The only thing I...

Yeah I have one 1.5" tri clover ferrule on my conical lid. I guess I could have a hook welded onto a fitting that would be inserted into this port. It also fits a carboy bung so his carboy dry hopper would probably work as well. I may pick up one of his keg dry hoppers and try that while I'm at...

Has anyone had a dry hop filter made for their conical fermenter? I have a 7 gallon SS Brewtech conical and I'm trying to figure out how to design a filter that will work. Any ideas?
